The Score with Edmund Stone 

Spoofs 

Saturday, February 28 | 4pm 

This week on The Score Edmund Stone has some film foolery with Spoofs, movies that are parodies, and a lot of fun. You’ll hear music from parodies of genres as disparate as westerns, A Million Ways to Die in the West; horror, Scary Movie; and science fiction with Galaxy Quest. Next time on The Score. 

 

Stars of Black Cinema 

Sunday, March 1 | 4pm 

Join Edmund Stone as he honors Black History Month with a look at contemporary Black Cinema, a rich, vital tradition of films made by, for and about Black people. From legends Sidney Poitier in Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner and Samuel L. Jackson’s versatility in The Incredibles to Cynthia Erivo’s tour-de-force singing and acting in Wicked and Idris Elba’s powerful performance in Beasts of No Nation, it’s a look and a listen to some of the finest actors in the world. This Sunday on The Score. 

 

Metropolitan Opera 

Berlioz: The Trojans (Part 1) 

Saturday, February 28 | 10am 

Berlioz’s rarely-performed classical epic, from the Met Opera stage!
